Left-arm spinner Murali Kartik cast his spell as Middlesex came within
sight of victory in a four-day Division Two County Championship match against
Glamorgan at Lord's.
After Middlesex scored 361 runs in their first innings, Kartik wove a web around
Glamorgan to claim 6-21 off 13.5 overs and bundled out the visitors for 106 on
the second day of the match yesterday.
Following on, the visitors experienced more woes as they lost six wickets only
for 120 on board.
Kartik was again at work troubling the Glamorgan batsmen and
captured two of the six wickets that fell in the second innings.
Trailing by 135 runs and with two days left, Glamorgan look
certain to embrace defeat as Kartik stands a chance to have a 10-wicket haul
in the match.
